As the train pulls out today from Derry City
A thousand memories linger in my mind
Why do I need to go
It's such a pity
And leave the dear old friends I leave behind
As I gaze upon the Harbour I'm recalling
Familiar names like Doherty & Coyle
Through misty eyes I see the teardrops falling
Goodbye to my old Hometown on the Foyle
The Spire of Saint Eugene's seems to vanish
From that distance oh the city oh so high
My childhood thoughts I never want to vanish
When I wondered if it reaches to the sky
Many thousand miles I'll travel on my journey
To a new home on the wild Australian soil
But never do I hope to lose the yearning
To return to my old Hometown on the Foyle
No never do I hope to lose the yearning
To return to my old Hometown on the Foyle
